Mode of Action
How Does It Work?
Taxidol tablet consists of tramadol, and aceclofenac as its two active components.
Aceclofenac works as an anti-analgesic (pain reliever) and antipyretic (lowers fever). These components work by decreasing the production of chemical substances like prostaglandins, responsible for pain and inflammation in the body. They also help regulate the body temperature by working on specific areas in the brain (hypothalamic heat-regulating centre).
Tramadol blocks pain signals from reaching various parts of the body. It blocks the pain pathways by binding to specific receptors in the nervous system. It also increases the amount of norepinephrine and serotonin, the chemical messengers responsible for reducing pain, thus resulting in a more calming effect....
